Cryptocurrency payments are coming to Verifone terminals!

In a world where digital innovation is redefining our consumption habits every day, Verifone, the world leader in payment solutions, is taking a new decisive step by joining forces with Lyzi, a French pioneer in cryptocurrency payments. Thanks to this strategic partnership, Verifone terminals now accept payments in Bitcoin and other cryptos directly at the point of sale. A revolution is under way in the world of payments!

Paying in cryptos: a customer experience

The objective of this partnership? Offer merchants and consumers a new fast, secure and innovative payment solution, directly integrated into Verifone payment terminals. Thanks to Lyzi's payment solution, it is now possible to pay for purchases in cryptocurrencies, fluidly, with the same simplicity as paying by bank card.

No need for additional hardware or complex technical skills. Verifone terminals are becoming “all-in-one” crypto acceptance points, paving the way for the massive adoption of cryptocurrency payments in convenience stores as well as in major retailers.

How does it work?

The process is simple:

1. The Verifone terminal generates a QR code specific to the amount to be paid.
2. The customer scans the QR code then selects their cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, etc.) and confirms the payment.
3. The trader receives the funds directly, converted into euros if necessary, without exposure to crypto volatility.

Cryptocurrency payments at your fingertips

The new generations, ultra-connected and tech-savvy, expect more freedom in their consumption patterns. With this innovation, Verifone and Lyzi are meeting this growing demand for alternative payments, while maintaining the highest security and compliance standards.

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are thus becoming concrete means of payment, usable on a daily basis, in physical shops, thanks to an intuitive and secure interface.

An opportunity for retailers

This partnership also represents a great opportunity for retailers:

• Stand out by offering an innovative payment experience,
• Attracting younger and tech-savvy customers,
• To be part of a dynamic of modernization and digitalization.

With more than 600,000 terminals deployed in France, including 5,000 devices accepting Lyzi, Verifone offers Lyzi an international showcase to accelerate the adoption of cryptocurrency payments on a large scale.

The democratization of crypto payments

Together, Verifone and Lyzi are drawing the contours of a future where cryptocurrency rhymes with accessibility and simplicity. This partnership marks a major step in the history of payment and confirms that cryptos are no longer reserved for insiders: they are now available to everyone, directly in stores since the giants of payment and collection solutions such as Nepting and JDC have adopted cryptocurrency payments.
